Using Docker with Azure Functions and SignalR Service
If you want to use Serverless Azure Functions and Azure SignalR Service with TaaS WebSocket/SignalR
Requirements
- Docker
- Tezos Node with enabled RPC endpoint supporting following calls
- /monitor/heads/main
- /chains/main/blocks/hash
In this configuration we are using a different docker image - this one is only sending a new blocks to our Azure Function, which then sends parsed information to subscribers through Azure SignalR Service.
If you just want to use a Docker container without having to setup Azure infrastructure please check Using Docker documentation section.
Ready-to-use docker image is available from Docker Hub here:
https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/tezoslive/agileventurestezpusherconsoleapp
Example of the
docker run command- setting the
Tezos:NodeUrlenv. variable to https://172.17.0.1:8732 - setting the
Azure:AzureFunctionKeyenv. variable to MySecretFunctionKey
Be sure to configure the following ENV keys correctly per your environment
Tezos:NodeUrlAzure:AzureFunctionUrlAzure:AzureFunctionKey
docker run -it --env Tezos:NodeUrl="https://172.17.0.1:8732" \
--env Azure:AzureFunctionUrl="https://myfunction.azurewebsites.net" \
--env Azure:AzureFunctionKey="MySecretFunctionKey" \

This infrastructure setup has the following benefits
- It allows you to have a more robust security out of the box as all communication is encrypted by TLS.
- It makes scaling your applications for thousands of subscribers much easier by using serveless compute with scalable SignalR Service.
